Checkered Flag

[rubber2ice]

lol, what a ride! I think this is the race where TD lost his sanity and realized chevettes were alright after all...

Did I actually say that out loud?

That was a great battle, I thought I had ya at the end there, just went a little too far with the slide job. You drove a great race, snookered both Larry and I with that tippy toe move inside.

We'll see what happens and maybe get it together for next season.

I need some help with photos.
1st. if you flat tow or open trailer your car, give it a bath.
Even a rub with snow at the track helps.
Filthy race cars make dirty pictures
2nd if I missed your car last weekend send me a PM.
then quit hiding out in the middle of the pack

So, I drove up from the city on Sunday, just to see familiar faces and watch a few races. (my new dog - loved it).

Seemed like a wonderful time was had by all. Great racing on the ice.

I did notice a couple of things that have changed in the region during the past couple of years. The Wagonwheel (just south of town) looks like it's closed down (?) and more interestingly - the World Famous Rockcliffe Tavern is for sale !

Now - there's an investment for me




ALSO - THIS THREAD IN THE FORUMS
More than 1,500 postings over a 4 year period !!!!
Long live the CHECKERED FLAG Thread !

The World Famous Rockcliffe has, i think, been for sale longer than it's actually been there . . . . .

5 years hunting now, and I finally have the photos
Just at sunset Friday I captured a family of ice makers hard at work.
About as rare a breed as you will ever find, much less ever capture

It's actually called a smudge pot. And if you did not have it you'll never get the water valve open ... eventually resulting in a 500 gallon ice cube ...
